A Moment Worth Waiting For Photo

Photographer’s Note

After 2 weeks in San-Francisco area, we had a lot to remember. On the last night before flying home, at a beach barbecue in Santa-Cruz, that view made us think about how a nice holiday that was.

tech: just did an auto level and some sharpening in Photoshop5. No cropping but I must admit the lighthouse was not lit when this particular shot was taken(only a nimute or two later; I edited it with another shot i took later on)

Welcome to TE Jean. I like the light down the side of the lighthouse and the detail in the waves. Well done.

Beautiful capture. If I am not mistaken this is Pigeon Point light house. The wave and the power of the ocean is what makes this super special. Well Done

Yes, that was a very special light. A fine composition too, putting the tower to the side to make room for a bit of open sea. Well done!
